Mind's eye: a case of out-of-body experiences.

Miranda Occhionero1, Vincenzo Natale, Monica Martoni, Lorenzo Tonetti.   

Abstract

Out-of-body experiences are the phenomena of seeing the image of one's body from an external perspective. We report the case of a patient affected by psychophysiological insomnia who presents hallucinatory phenomenon, successfully treated with haloperidol.We hypothesize that these hallucinations during psychophysiological insomnia are expression of an alteration of specific neurocognitive networks that regulate the cognitive arousal systems.
